  • Temperature at which a solid changes into a liquid
    Melting point
  • Special quality or characteristic of something
    Property
  • Molecule with more that one type of atom in it
    Compound
  • Name the physical properties of matter
    Density, boiling point, melting point and solubility
  • TRUE OR FALSE: when the temperature of water changes, some of its physical properties change too.
    TRUE, because it can be frozen, warm or cold, and the substance will have the same components, but it will look differently.
  • A polar molecule has negative electrical charge in one side. Why attraction is important?
    The attraction keeps the molecules together and affect how the molecules interact with other substances
  • Amount of mass in a certain volume of matter
    Density
  • CHEMICAL PROPERTY that scientists use to identify the ability of matter to burn easily
    Flammability
  • Smallest part of a substance that keep the properties of that substance
    Molecule
  • Solid material with atoms that are arranged in a certain shape and extend in all directions
    Crystal
  • When the surface of a liquid allows it to resist an outside force
    Surface tension
  • Very small particle that is the basic unit that makes up matter
    Atom
  • Simplest chemical substance, it can not be broken down
    Element
  • Tells the kind and quantity of atoms in a substance
    Chemical formula
  • Temperature at which a liquid changes into a gas
    Boiling point
  • Examples of crystals
    Ice, sugar, table salt, diamond
  • Ability of one material to dissolve in another
    Solubility
  • Matter that always contains the same type of atoms arranged in the same way
    Pure substance
  • Property that can be observed and measured only by changing the matter into a different kind of matter
    Chemical property
  • Is water: a compound, a molecule or an element?
    It is a compound, because it has hydrogen and oxygen. And it is also a molecule, because H2O has the characteristics of water.
  • Attraction between atoms and molecules, like the glue that keeps them together
    Chemical bond
  • Examples of pure substances
    Cooper and water
  • Property that can be observed and measured without changing the kind of matter
    Physical property
  • When an object reacts to water and oxygen producing rust or change in color, that is an example of
    Chemical property
